YouTuber Lars Von Retriever is known for turning metal songs into laughing covers. Meaning, he takes the time finding clips of band members laughing and uses the laugh as an instrument. He has already used Metallica frontman James Hetfield’s laughter for the song “Atlas, Rise!,” made puppies sound like Nirvana’s “Smell Like Teen Spirit,” introduced Lady Gaga as the new Metallica singer, and invented his own Slipknot “Duality” track with Corey Taylor’s “Laughality.” His latest creation unites Hetfield and Dave Mustaine, as we hear them laugh to the similar style of Metallica’s “The Four Horsemen.”
